Air extraction
Danger of toxic fumes.
Please heed the ,,Warning and
Safety Instructions“ to avoid the
dangers of toxic fumes.
The cooker hood should be in-
stalled according to local building
regulations. Seek approval from the
building inspector where necessary.
Connection for extraction
– The extraction ducting should be as
short and straight as possible.
– To ensure efficient air extraction the
diameter of the exhaust ducting
should not be less than 125 mm (5").
The use of flat ducting also reduces
the air extraction efficiency.
– The use of exhaust ducting with a
diameter less than 125 mm (5") and
flat ducting increases the noise level
of the cooker hood.
– Only use wide radius bends. Tight
bends reduce the air throughput of
the cooker hood.
– Only use smooth or flexible pipes
made from non-flammable materials
for exhaust connection.
– Where ducting is horizontal, it must
be laid to slope away at 1 cm per
metre (1/8" per foot) , to ensure no
condensation drains into the ap-
pliance.
– If the exhaust air is to be ducted out-
side, the installation of a Miele tele-
scopic wall vent is recommended.
– If the exhaust air is to be ducted into
a vent flue, the ducting must be di-
rected in the flow direction of the flue.
Connection
Only use narrower diameter pipe-
work where it is unavoidable, for
example where existing pipework
has to be used.
The narrower the diameter the lower
the performance and the noisier the
operation.
If a connection to 100 mm (4")
diameter piping is to be made, fit the
reducer supplied (adaptor) on to the
exhaust connection of the cooker
hood.
